On March 12, HUST signed an MoU with LGEDV Company and LG CNS Vietnam Company. This cooperation marks a significant step forward in a collective journey towards fostering technological innovation, strengthening academia-industry collaboration, and nurturing a new generation of skilled professionals.

At the signing ceremony, Associate Professor Huynh Quyet Thang, President of Hanoi University of Science and Technology, firmly believed this collaboration would extend beyond high-quality workforce recruitment collaborations to include industry-oriented training initiatives, joint research projects, and technology transfer programs tailored to LG’s needs. In addition, Hanoi University of Science and Technology may even explore establishing a joint R&D laboratory at HUST. 
  “I hope that today’s MOU signing marks the beginning of a fruitful collaboration between LGEDV, LG CNS and HUST, paving the way for impactful joint initiatives in the future. I want to extend my sincere gratitude to the leadership of LGEDV and LG CNS Vietnam for choosing and trusting HUST as your close partner in Vietnam. I look forward to a fruitful and enduring collaboration with LGEDV and LG CNS Vietnam.” – HUST President emphasized.

Also at the ceremony, Mr. Lee Sang Yong - Senior Vice President of LG Electronics expressed: "I look forward to effective and long-term cooperation with Hanoi University of Science and Technology."
  Since its establishment in 1956, Hanoi University of Science and Technology (HUST) has maintained its position as Vietnam’s leading institution in science and technology. Over the decades, we have trained thousands of engineers, researchers, and industry leaders who have significantly contributed to the nation’s economic, political, cultural, and social development. 
With a vision to become a pioneering, excellent research and innovation university, a center for training talents in engineering and technology in Vietnam, and a globally recognized institution, HUST has prioritized four key research areas: Data Technology and Intelligent Systems, Sustainable Energy and Environment, Advanced Materials and Health Science and Technology. 

Hanoi University of Science and Technology is committed to building an ecosystem of scientific research, innovation, startups and close cooperation with domestic and foreign enterprises. The partnership between Hanoi University of Science and Technology and LG Group is a testament to this commitment.

HUST is also committed to building an internationally integrated ecosystem that fosters innovation, entrepreneurship, and strong university-industry collaboration. Our partnership with LG Group exemplifies this commitment. 
  In July 2022, HUST signed an MOU with LG Display Vietnam Hai Phong, followed by another agreement with LG Innotek Vietnam Hai Phong one year later, in July 2023. These partnerships have provided invaluable opportunities for our students to participate in factory field trips or intensive internships at LG’s facilities in Hai Phong. The LG Track program supported valuable scholarships to dozens of HUST students annually, empowering them to excel academically and professionally. 

LGEDV and LG CNS Vietnam have been pivotal in advancing Vietnam’s industrial and technological landscape, contributing to economic growth. Today marks a new chapter in our collaboration journey, which promises mutual growth, innovation, and excellence in education, research, and technology development.

The Communist Party of Vietnam and the Government of Vietnam have built strategies and demonstrated a burning desire and determination to develop science, technology, innovation, and digital transformation, considering this a decisive factor for the country's progress. Vietnam has a significant Resolution No. 57 "On breakthroughs in science, technology, innovation and national digital transformation". HUST is also building solutions to implement this resolution in the fastest, most effective, and most drastic way possible. Developing strategic partnerships with enterprises from the industry is one of the solutions.
